Watched the first ep of Star Trek. I not sure about this but going to give it a chance. I am a Holly Hunter fan.

Watched the first episode of America’s Culinary Cup with Padma Lakshmi. I all ready have a favorite. Think this going to be a good show. I do miss the cooking shows from the past that taught me how to cook though.
 
I'd been looking occasionally for the Sci-Fi (though billed as a western) series Firefly. It didn't seem to be available anywhere for the longest time, then it popped up recently as a recommendation on Disney/Hulu. Score!

The series aired in 2002, written and directed by Josh Whedon, before he went on to direct blockbuster movies. Despite strong fan support, it was abruptly cancelled after one season/14 episodes, leaving a LOT of threads hanging that were planned to be addressed in season 2. The cast did come back to make a movie, Serenity, a few years later, though set soon after the timeline of the series. I haven't yet watched that, as it seems to only be available for purchase or pay-to-stream. Just recently, there have been strong rumors of the cast reuniting again, so we'll see.

My wife is a huge fan of The Rookie. She wandered through the TV room when I was first watching Firefly, paused, and said..."That's him! That's The Rookie!" I hadn't made the connection, but the ship captain in Firefly is indeed a very young Nathan Fillion.

Me too. Everything has to be a freaking competition these days. And they sometimes even make those not fun. I loved the great food truck race until they got stupid with it. "OK contestants, now you have to sell your food with 4 flat tires, one hand tied behind your back hanging by your knees blindfolded and harvest all your ingredients from peoples home gardens without getting shot".

I just enjoyed the basic competition...

Firefly and Serenity are good watches. Most of the surviving cast are teasing a development to be coming soon. Show ended way too soon, but that is Fox for you.

Absolutely loved that show.

Would love to see some kind of comeback, maybe a movie or miniseries. Be curious to see if Morena Baccarin would be involved.
